<em>Question:</em>
<em>The digit 8 in which number represents a value of 8 thousandths?
</em>
Answer:
See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires options and the options are missing.
However, the following explanation will guide you
Start by representing 8 thousandths as a digit
i.e.
8 thousandths implies 0.008
Next;
Replace the 0s with dashes
_ . _ _8
Note that there are two dashes after the decimal point and before 8
PS: The dashes are used to represent digits
This implies that thousandths is the 3rd digit after the decimal point
Typical examples to back up this explanation are:
<em>17.008, 1.1489, 0.008 and so on...</em>
Answer: 117.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both numerator and denominator by 100. We do this to find an equivalent fraction having 100 as the denominator.
Multiply both numerator and denominator by 100. We do this to find an equivalent fraction having 100 as the denominator.
= (1.172 × 100) × 1/100=117.2/100
Write in percentage notation: 117.2%
It would take 25 years for Birr 500 to quadruple if invested at a rate of 12% simple interest per annum.
<h3 /><h3>Simple interest formula</h3>
Using the simple interest formula A = P(1 + rt) where
- P = princial amount = Birr 500,
- A = final amount = 4P (since it is quadrupled),
- r = rate = 12% = 12/100 = 0.12 and
- t = time to quadruple
<h3 /><h3>Finding the time it takes to quadruple </h3>
Since we require t, making t subject of the formula, we have
t = [(A/P) - 1]/r
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
t = [(A/P) - 1]/r
t = [(4P/P) - 1]/0.12
t = [4 - 1]/0.12
t = 3/0.12
t = 25 years
So, it would take 25 years for Birr 500 to quadruple if invested at a rate of 12% simple interest per annum.
